Campus Improvements

There is so much happening these days at WPI it's hard to keep track of all the campus projects. From East Hall, our newest residence hall, to renovations of labs in Goddard Hall, to planning for the new recreation center, the campus is a buzz with improvements.

Check out this recent PowerPoint presentation to learn more about all the campus improvements:

New Transportation Options

It's getting easier to get in and out of Worcester. On Monday additional commuter trains were added to the Worcester/Boston schedule. Two more round trips were added to the schedule giving even more choices for commuters. This brings the total to 13 trains a day...Check out http://mbta.com/schedules_and_maps/rail/lines/?route=WORCSTER for the full schedule.

Did you know that Worcester is the busiest stop on the commuter rail outside of Boston? More people take trains in and out of Worcester each day than any other stop on the MBTA Commuter Rail system.

Need to go further than Boston? Need to get to a warmer climate? Worcester Regional Airport has added commercial flights to Florida three days a week. Direct flights are available to Orlando and the Fort Myers area. Check out http://www.massport.com/worce/ for more details.
